A Fox writer asked me to comment for a story mocking me. I replied, "As I said on air: Why hasn& #39;t Fox shown live on-air vaccinations like other networks have? Why haven& #39;t the morning and evening hosts shared their vaccination experiences with the viewers? Maybe you can find out."
As expected, Fox left my Qs out of the resulting story. I ended the email by saying, in vain, "Please do report out why Fox& #39;s biggest stars aren& #39;t taking a simple step to encourage public health. I look forward to reading."
Fox folks can mock me, they can downplay their influence, but big platforms come with big responsibilities. Yes, getting the vaccine is a personal choice. But TV vaccinations and "selfies" are helpful: they show that it& #39;s safe and easy. Who& #39;s against that? https://www.today.com/news/watch-today-team-get-covid-19-vaccinations-live-air-t214136">https://www.today.com/news/watc...
